Fighting Withdrawal

Finally got to a Sudan bash and it was great fun.  We used the scenario developed by Matt Mirsik for the free scenario supplement for BFE 2.  We have played this a couple of times and the results have been quite varied.  It comes down to the Egyptian players' decisions and a bit of luck on the initiative rolls.  In this rendition of the scenario, the Egyptians were very lucky and got a significant part of their infantry back to the village and "fort" - the victory objectives for the Dervishes. Ultimately, casualties mounted and the Dervish force was thrown back.

Battle of Ravenna

We played another Italian Wars game last night based upon the Peter Sides scenario.  Worked well although sadly history was reversed....the Spanish prevailed.  I was playing the French....

Figures are from three collections.  A mixture of Connoisseur, Redoubt, Foundry Tiger, TAG, Old Glory, and Perry.  As varied as the period.
